Great company and wonderful food
John and Monica welcomed us warmly and taught us the secrets of making the perfect dim sum.John's dinner was delicious and accompanied by interesting and fun stories about his Mauritian and Canadian family/culture. It was such a pleasure to spend an evening with this lovely couple. Highly recommend!

It was a pleasure having you in their kitchen, and we’re so glad you enjoyed the food, the hands-on experience, and the warm hospitality.

The host, John Chung, welcomed us & gave hands on cooking instructions. He also educated us about his home country, Mauritius.

An amazing honeymoon trip!
Both of the Chungs were incredible people! We visited on our honeymoon and so appreciated the whole experience. We stayed extra long after dinner to just continue talking to them!!
We so enjoyed our time and would strongly recommend anyone who is looking for this sort of experience to book now!

Host canceled to go on holiday--and didn't tell us
We reserved dinner and paid in advance, long before the agreed date. Six days before the dinner date I sent a message via Traveling Spoon and immediately got a boilerplate email from them advising that John went on holiday and the dinner was canceled. So, I wonder: 1) how long ago were the host's plans changed? And 2) why couldn't someone tell us? All in all, pretty lame. Is a boilerplate email the best Traveling Spoon could do?
Operator response
Dear guest,
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your booking. We understand how frustrating it must have been to have your reservation canceled on short notice, especially after booking and paying in advance. Unfortunately, the host had to go on holiday, and we regret that this was not communicated sooner. We are reviewing our communication process to ensure that guests are notified immediately in the future and that cancellations are handled more personally. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve our service, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you to another cooking experience soon.

Delicious homecooked food made with love
An absolutely amazing experience and SUCH delicious food. John was incredibly kind and a very talented cook - he accommodated both a gluten free person and vegetarian and made the best tofu I have ever had. It was such a joy to talk with him and his daughter. He has such a passion for cooking and it was obvious from the taste of his food that he pours his heart into what he cooks. 10/10 would recommend.

Great meal, great company
We loved our time with John and his wife Monica. The food was amazing and the hosts even better. John did a great job of accomodating my son's wheat allergy. My kids also loved the experience. My son said he loved how welcoming they were and my daughter loved the food.
